ATO Podcast
My Name is Brad Boldt, Owner of Ameriguard Insurance Agency. My mission on this podcast is to help insurance agencies become bigger, better, stronger business owners. Most of us are insurance agents that evolve into owning a business. Becoming a business owner is often an after thought. By developing as a well rounded business owner earlier, we can avoid some costly mistakes. I'll be interviewing insurance agents, insurance companies and insurance professionals from across the country to help us grow together. We'll be discussing marketing, growth, hiring, acquisitions, challenges, mistakes and wins. Enjoy!!

#64 Automate Your Agency with Mariah Gates
Mariah Gates has a great business owner story. After a very successful career as an insurance agent, Mariah developed a passion for using technology to enhance the agencies customer experience, help prospect new business and improve efficiencies. Soon she found herself helping other these processes. With her passion to help others and expand the automated process she started consulting agencies to starting a side hustle of helping agents with their tech and automation to a very fast growing business of Agency Automation. Mariah created Accelerated Automation. She is in such high demand that she cannot hire fast enough to support the demand. Accelerated Automation has grown so quickly that she decided to sell her insurance agency so she can focus full time on the new business venture. It was a pleasure to have a conversation with Mariah!
